RIBBLEHEAD VIADUCT, YORKSHIRE


The Ribblehead Viaduct in the Yorkshire Dales is an example of Victorian engineering at its very best. At 1,320 feet long and 104 feet high, this spectacular viaduct spans the Ribble Valley and can be seen from miles around. Today it still carries the Settle-Carlisle Railway, and is one of Yorkshire's most distinctive landmarks.
